US Representative Thomas Kean disclosed another sale of Alphabet (Google parent) shares on August 27, 2026, continuing a pattern of stock sales throughout the year. He sold between $1,001 and $15,000 worth of Alphabet Class A shares, with no recent purchases reported, signaling a trend of exiting tech stocks. Despite Kean's sales, Alphabet's stock price rose about 2.57% after the sale, supported by strong quarterly earnings beating Wall Street expectations. Kean also sold shares in Microsoft and Johnson & Johnson on the same day, while buying shares in infrastructure company MasTec earlier, indicating a rotation across sectors rather than outright divestment from the market.
